I would like to point out that a PSP version of Peggle is being released very soon. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/11/12/peggle-hits-psp-on-tuesday-is-addicting/ General AUS ( talk) 00:02, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

I think we could make this NPOV by removing the exclamation Points and changing the characters graph to put down more encyclopedic descriptions of their powers.
I would like to see a discussion of the highest scores achieved in Peggle. For instance, a score of 2,700,000 is
thought to be obtained only once in 50,000 tries. What are the highest scores known, I am curious to know. —Preceding

10 x multiplier pts for Blue 100 x multiplier pts for orange 500 x multiplier pts for purple The total is multiplied (again) by the number of pegs hit
example, I hit 4 pegs 3 blue one orange, whilst the multiplier is x1
10 + 10 + 10 + 100 = 130 x 4 = 520 Then style points are added, unaffected by multipliers. Can we squeeze this into the Gameplay section? I think the gameplay section is become a little bit of a "wall of text" ,maybe split into sub sections? Zeonglow ( talk) 00:58, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
Whoever wrote that part of the entry is clearly mistaken. The most comprehensive arcade game website on the net, KLOV.com, does not have an entry for a Peggle arcade game link. If one existed, no matter how obscure, they'd have a record of it. 68.229.184.37 03:07, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
I don't understand. Clearly there was an arcade game called Peggle with similar gameplay. It was released in 1991 by Strata/Incredible technologies.

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

I plan on copyediting the article sometime later. Lots of little prose issues to work out. Really, I think the article's biggest problem lies in the Gameplay section, which may need to be reworked in structure to read less confusing. -- gakon5 ( talk) 21:53, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
The article currently sates that "If all the pegs on a level are cleared, a bonus is awarded and all the bins turn to the maximum value and the message "Ultra Extreme Fever" is displayed." This is incorrect. A player only receives "Ultra Extreme Fever" if the very last brick/peg destroyed is orange -- I've learned this from personal experience. The second to last peg was orange; the ball ricocheted off of it to hit the final, blue peg. Alex999139 ( talk) 03:00, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I read this review of a study yet feel it should be verified The numbers are Noticeably Big When I read a powerpoint presentation doubleyew doubleyew doubleyew dot ecu dot edu/cs-hhp/rcls/biofeedback/upload/Matt-Fish-Slides_03-01-11.pptx there were other also impressive results — Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.41.136.51 ( talk) 23:18, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
with a decrease in total mood disturbance being a positive change in mood. In terms of total mood disturbance, 'Peggle had the greatest effect, improving mood by 573% across all study subjects' compared to the control group (which saw a modest improvement in mood). Bejeweled 2 (435%) and Bookworm Adventures (303%) also had significant positive effects on subjects' overall mood. Interestingly, among those subjects who played Bejeweled 2, male subjects showed a 10% greater increase in total mood than female subjects, while females who played Peggle experienced a 40% greater improvement in mood than males who played that game. "It's not surprising that Peggle had the greatest effect on overall mood, given the game's over-the-top celebration of players' success each time they complete a level,"
East Carolina University's Department of Recreation and Leisure Studies today revealed the results of a six-month long, randomized, controlled study that measured the stress-relieving and other mood-lifting effects of so-called "casual" video games. The three puzzle and word games used in the study, Bejeweled® 2, Peggle™ and Bookworm™ Adventures, are all made by PopCap Games, the leading developer and publisher of casual video games. (PopCap underwrote the study and provided copies of the games for research purposes.)
In all cases, the changes in stress levels and mood were measured in comparison to a control group that experienced a Web-based activity similar in physical and mental nature to the game-playing groups.
"I've conducted many clinical studies in the area of recreational therapy in the past, but this was the first one seeking to determine the potential therapeutic value of video games," stated Dr. Russoniello. "The results of this study are impressive and intriguing, given the extent of the effects of the games on subjects' stress levels and overall mood. When coupled with the very high degree of confidence we have in those results based on the methodology and technologies used, I believe there is a wide range of therapeutic applications of casual games in mood-related disorders such as depression and in stress-related disorders including diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Granted, this study was a first step and much more needs to be done before video games can be prescribed to treat medical conditions. However, these exciting results confirm anecdotal evidence that people are playing casual video games to improve their mood and decrease their stress, and herald casual games' potential in health promotion, disease prevention, and treatment of stress- and mood-related disorders."
